Immune Health

No one likes being sick, but unless we lock ourselves away in isolation, chances are we will be exposed to things like the common cold at various times in our lives. Luckily, there are other ways of reducing our chances of getting sick that don’t involve isolation.

The best way to do this is, by strengthening our immune system so that it’s able to fight off any potential bugs quickly and efficiently, before they have a chance to take hold. This is where supplements can be help.

Vitamin C, for instance, can help enhance the activity of our immune cells, it seems to work best when taken prophylactically. Add this to your daily supplement regime to help give your immune system a boost. If you do find yourself coming down with a cold, try increasing your vitamin C intake to at least 2000mg – 3000mg daily. When it comes to immune system support, let’s not forget the age old remedy – Echinacea. Echinacea has shown to be beneficial in both preventing colds and reducing the duration and severity of symptoms. Combine this with Andrographis, another herb shown to be beneficial in both the prevention and alleviation of the common cold and you’ve got an excellent ally in building immunity and, by increasing the dose, reducing the severity and duration of a cold.

Another thing - keep up your zinc levels over winter, as zinc is important for normal immune system function and if you still want to support your immune system further, try adding some garlic to your regime.
